Un-zip for Macintosh
By Jack M. Conway

I downloaded the MIDI file of "Painting the Town Red, White, and Blue." When I tried to play it I got an error message that said I had nothing to un-zip it. I looked at software catalogs for ZIP software. I can find it for IBM but do not find it listed for Macintosh. I am using a Mac LC III. Can this file be heard on a Mac or only on an IBM? If there is a Mac program for ZIP would you please give me its name.

Thanks, Jack M. Conway

[ Ed. Note: I, too, use a Macintosh, Jack. I am told that "Stuffit
[ Deluxe" has un-zip and decoders for virtually everything, but I
[ don't have it so I use Apple File Exchange to create a DOS file
[ which I unzip at the old PC. I'll send you a Mac version of
[ the song so you can enjoy it without delay! -- Robbie
